Android 2.2 added to it's API the capability for apps such as PodTrapper to pause playback when other Android operations temporarily output sounds, including navigation voice directions. It is currently extremely frustrating when using navigation and listening to a podcast, as the navigation voice talks over the podcast, and you miss what was said in the podcast. Notification sounds can also pause/unpause the podcast. Also, when voice input is activated, PodTrapper should temporarily pause playback so that the voice has a silenced background. Other podcast players implement this feature. Without this feature I cannot use Podtrapper -- it's just too frustrating when using voice input and navigation.

OK -- just registered. So this new feature (auto pause/unpause on Android navigation and sound interruptions and voice input) will be available on the download page (3.0.7?)? Or should I just upgrade via the market. I purchased and downloaded form your website -- did not use the market, so can I still upgrade via market? Thanks, -Tom.

It's still in progress, right now it half works (it pauses when interrupted, but doesn't resume). I'm still tweaking it, stay tuned. (The current half-working version is 3.0.10 available on the beta page (http://ota.versatilemonkey.com/beta/)
